Breaking Down Tonight’s NBA Draft: The Players, The Picks, and Virtual Fashion

Tonight, in a studio in Bristol, Connecticut, the 2020 NBA Draft will (finally) unfold. After a five month postponement, tonight’s draft will no doubt look different from drafts past: no cheering fans or players shaking the commissioner’s hand on stage.
